Hopefully I wont become a marked man talking about such exotic stuff on
packet (Morse).

But I'm just wondering if I'm alone in using the practice of the
long zero.

I'm not sure how I picked it up, but I've often used it,although I seem
to vary from using a standard five dashes to the long dash for a zero.

I cant find any references to it in the modern books I have either.

Where does the long zero come from and do others on here use or recognise
it?
